Jerry Jones Cancels Combine Session Amid Parsons Talks

Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, broke a long-standing tradition by not holding his customary media session on his team bus during the NFL Scouting Combine, attributed to scheduling conflicts and several team meetings. This absence sparked speculation, as Jones, known for embracing media attention, usually uses this opportunity to discuss Super Bowl dreams and team strategies. Instead, the focus appears to have shifted to Micah Parsons, with reports indicating the Cowboys have begun early-stage contract extension discussions with the linebacker. Stephen Jones, the team's COO, mentioned a 'selectively strategic and aggressive' approach for the offseason, with head coach Brian Schottenheimer also participating in public discussions. Jerry Jones is expected to address the team's offseason plans later.
